Food that fed big families on very little

Amish and Pennsylvania Dutch kitchens cook from a short list of staples: flour, butter, eggs, potatoes, oats, and whatever the garden gives. Nothing goes to waste. Yesterday's bread becomes pudding, Sunday's roast becomes Monday's hash, and one pot of chicken and noodles feeds the whole table.

This book writes that way of cooking down plainly: every recipe with exact measurements, numbered steps, a tip, and a note on how to make it for less.
